Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) revealed that he was going to support a “decent person” like President Joe Biden in the upcoming 2024 presidential election over a “criminal defendant without a moral compass.”
In an op-ed written in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Duncan criticized Republicans who “fall in line” behind former President Donald Trump, labeling it as “disappointing” and arguing that those who decide to support Trump as the Republican presidential nominee are “dead wrong” in that mentality. It’s disappointing to watch an increasing number of Republicans fall in line behind former president Donald Trump,” Duncan began,
Whatever the actual goal of pro-Hamas protesters across the nation, winning hearts and minds doesn't seem to be a concern. Instead, they seem intent on alienating as many people as possible while demanding genocide in the name of terrorists.
The latest example of unrest comes from New York, which has seen illegal encampments and the storming of buildings on various college campuses over the past several weeks. On Monday evening, a large group of Hamas supporters fought with the NYPD, breaking down barriers to rush the area around the Met Gala. Certainly, there's something poetic about that given the left-wing elites that attend the event every year created these monsters.

Left-wing groups and activists have reportedly been receiving training for months ahead of the chaotic pro-terrorism protests occurring on college campuses. According to a Wall Street Journal report, many of the pro-Hamas agitators have been consulting with groups such as National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP) and Samidoun: Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network for up to nine months. The protestors were reportedly trained on how to encourage college students to join in on the demonstrations and planning such turbulent events. The groups use social media to reach out to potential protestors and give them advice such as informing them to cover their faces.
A horrifying video has emerged showing a large transgender (biological male) student attacking a smaller and weaker girl in a New York high school women’s restroom, which resulted in a bomb threat being sent to the institution after the clip was discovered online.
While the assault at Greece Arcadia High School in Rochester reportedly took place in February, it was only uncovered on Thursday by the feminist website Reduxx. The outlet also noted the school refused to share any details regarding the awful beating.
The clip captured by Reduxx shows the transgender teen storming into a restroom stall and laying a beatdown on the innocent girl
The Biden administration helped guide roughly $1.3 million to the Taliban through a weapons removal program since September 2021, according to an April 30 inspector general report.
Taliban entities received funds from partners working with the State Department’s Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement in Afghanistan, including $138,000 in this quarter, according to the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction’s (SIGAR) recent report. SIGAR’s report documents how the head of the Taliban has defended Sharia law, including “publicly flogging and stoning women for committing adultery,” as well as how other terrorist groups, like ISIS-K, are proliferating in the region.
As violent pro-Hamas protests engulf campuses across America, one “leader” has been notably silent. Scenes of anarchy and chaos play on our television screens nightly, yet Joe Biden has yet to face the cameras and weigh in on the matter, much less call for a de-escalation of tensions. The administration’s only notable statements have been Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre's weak-kneed homages to the rights of Americans to protest—and while they’ve quietly condemned the antisemitic chants and vandalism, their hearts don’t really seem to be into it. (California Gov. Gavin Newsom has also put on a disappearing act, even as UCLA and USC have been embroiled in chaos.
A Boeing whistleblower who raised the alarm about defects in 737 Max jets has died suddenly at the age of 45.
Joshua Dean previously said he was fired from his job as a quality auditor at Spirit AeroSystems for questioning standards at the supplier's plant in Wichita, Kansas, in October 2022.
Spirit manufactured the door plug on the Boeing jet which shockingly blew out midair on an Alaska Airlines flight in January.
Dean died in hospital on Tuesday after a sudden illness, his family said on social media. He was fired from Spirit AeroSystems in April 2023.
Earlier this year, Dean spoke with NPR about being fired
President Joe Biden responded to a felon allegedly killing four officers in North Carolina Monday by pushing more gun controls for law-abiding Americans.
Breitbart News reported that the man who allegedly killed the officers, 39-year-old Terry Clark Hughes Jr., was a felon barred from gun possession.
In other words, Hughes faced 100 percent gun control. Nevertheless, he used a gun to kill four officers, one of whom was a Deputy U.S. Marshal
Biden responded by pushing gun storage laws and a slew of other controls for law-abiding citizens.
The White House published a statement from Biden, wherein he said:
Republicans began the Congress with a bold agenda to hold President Joe Biden accountable, but they’ll finish it in a coalition government with Democrats despite Republicans maintaining their slim majority.
House Democrat leadership issued a joint statement Tuesday announcing Democrats would table any vote on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA) motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson (R-L). The move cements a governing partnership that began when Johnson relied on Democrats to advance his foreign aid scheme after a monumental flip-flop from his position that no more foreign aid would be considered until securing the southern border.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that military aid to Ukraine was not charity, adding that it created jobs in the United States.
Host Kristen Welker said, “I want to ask you about your legacy. You said just this week that you often feel like the only Reagan Republican left. As you prepare to step down from your leadership position this year, what are your greatest concerns about the future of the Republican Party?”
McConnell said, “I tell you, I feel better about it after we had our vote. I don’t know what I said then, it may have been before the vote.
Laura Loomer confronted Fani Willis on Friday night at the National Association of Black County Officials (NABCO) in Miami, Florida.
Fani was attending the event with her lover and former lead attorney Nathan Wade. The two lovebirds are still traveling together on business/pleasure trips. It’s not clear who’s paying the bills.
Willis paid Wade over $653,000 between 2022 and 2023 while the two were dating. Wade was forced to step down from Fani’s case in mid-March against President Trump after the two were caught lying to the court about the timing of their affair.

The use of phrases such as “pregnant people” or “penis owners” in cultural or political discourse is sometimes met with confusion, or even anger.
Why use these terms when, as some people ask, “only women can get pregnant” or when “only men have penises?”
Those people and institutions using gender-neutral language aim to be cognizant of the fact that sex doesn’t always align with gender identity, said psychiatrist Dr. Jack Drescher, past president of the Group for Advancement of Psychiatry and clinical professor of psychiatry at Columbia University in New York City. And it’s the most inclusive, streamlined way to refer to everyone who, regardless of their gender identity,

An Arizona State University senior who was arrested and suspended after trespassing during an anti-Israel protest broke down in tears over missing graduation as a consequence of her actions.

Pro-Hamas student protesters at George Washington University are now openly calling for the beheading of the school president and members of the board of trustees.
They allowed this situation to go on for too long and now it’s completely out of control.
As you’ll see in the video below, these students are actually chanting ‘Guillotine, Guillotine!’

Former Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade said Sunday that his extramarital affair with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was “as American as apple pie.”
Wade told ABC News that “workplace romances” like his relationship with Willis “happens to everyone” in his first interview since his resignation from working on the Georgia election interference case against presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in March. “Workplace romances are as American as apple pie,” Wade told ABC News’ Linsey Davis. “It happens to everyone."
Rising Number of Men Don't Want to Work
29 replies
American men are opting out of the workforce at unforeseen rates. For many, it's not an issue of not being able to find a job. They have simply opted out altogether. The Bureau of Labor Statistics found only 89 percent of working age men have a job or are actively looking for work. In 1950, that number was at 97 percent. While the early 1950s saw around 96 percent of working age American men between the ages of 25 and 54 working full or part-time jobs, that proportion has now moved to just 86 percent, according to the Bureau of
Crooked far left Judge Juan Merchan threatened President Trump on Monday with contempt of court violations.
Merchan also threatened to throw President Trump in prison.
Merchan also threatened President Trump’s team with contempt of court for speaking out publicly in his defense.
Democrats hate when conservatives and Trump supporters refute their lies and push back against their lawfare attacks.(Photo, X) Crooked Judge Merchan still has not allowed the defense team to know the witnesses that will be called before the court.
The far left judge told Trump he has until 2:15 PM today to take down posts on Truth Social.
Stormy Daniels has taken the stand in Donald Trump’s hush money trial in a bombshell moment.
The porn star will testify about the $130,000 she received to keep quiet about her alleged affair with the former president.
The 77-year-old defendant has denied all claims he had a sexual relationship with Daniels. It is a huge juncture in the trial that prosecutors believe could take another two weeks.
Judge Merchan ruled that Stormy will be able to testify about 'sexual acts' with Trump during her time on the stand. Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger told the judge that there would be 'no descriptions of genitalia or anything.'

the Bronx don’t know what the word ‘computer’ means 26 replies
Bronx politicians are ripping Gov. Kathy Hochul after she asserted that some black children in the borough don’t know what the word “computer” means.
Hochul, speaking at an on-stage forum in California Monday, stuck her foot in her mouth while trying to explain how she wants to create a diverse workforce in new areas like artificial intelligence.
“Right now we have, you know, young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is,” Gov. Kathy Hochul blabbered into a microphone Monday.
“They don’t know, they don’t know these things. And I want the world opened up to all of them,” she continued.
Former CNN host Chris Cuomo said in a recent news segment that he is suffering from a health condition after he received a COVID-19 vaccine.
Mr. Cuomo made the revelation during his NewsNation program when he was interviewing a nurse practitioner, Sean Barcavage, who was featured in a recent New York Times article about vaccine injuries.
“We know that vaccines can have unintended consequences, AKA side effects, but nobody’s really talking about it because they’re too afraid of blame, and they just want it to go away,” Mr. Cuomo said. “But the problem is people like Sean—and me—and millions of others who still have weird stuff with their bloodwork and their lives
Judas Iscariot was one of Jesus’s 12 Apostles.
In the Garden of Gethsemane the night before Jesus's crucifixion, Judas betrayed Jesus to the Sanhedrin who eventually arrested Jesus.
Jesus predicted this betrayal during the Last Supper. In exchange for his treachery, Judas received thirty pieces of silver. Could he have also been threatened? Who knows? The Bible says nothing about that.
Modern day betrayals, particularly of leaders, occur via carrot or stick, reward or kompromat.
For Judas, the price was a pocket of silver coins. For members of Congress, the price may be a do-nothing board seat, a cable news gig, or stock options worth millions.
